Lady In The Water...

In M. Night Shyamalan's newest movie, Lady In The Water, is not a horror film, but a bedtime story brought to "real Life” It is in classic Shyamalan style with many twists and turns as in many of his other movies. You begin to wonder if you are crazy because the movie does not make sense, but in the end, it all comes together. Paul Giamatti plays in my opinion, one of his best rolls as an actor in the movie and it is a pivotal roll as in getting all the elements that are needed to bring the Narf get back to where she heeds to be. He keeps you guessing until the very end and then it all comes together.

With movies under his belt like:
Unbreakable
Signs
The Village
The Sixth Sense

All had good actors and very good original sound scores. My personal favorite was Unbreakable with Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson...What a CAST.

Another thing that I like in his movies is that he plays characters in them. It might be a passing part or an integral part such as in the Lady in the Water. I think that is one of his trademarks, to not only direct and write, but to also star in the movie itself. It just adds a little something extra in his movies like he really cares what he is doing and how it is done. He has a brilliant talent to write and produce movies and is a master at his craft that I think is much to under rated in Hollywood. Most of his movies are done with little or no cussing, sex, or much violence, and yet…They get his point across without all the normal Hollywood tactics. IF you want a good movie to watch, then get any of M. Night Shyamalan's titles. In my opinion, they are all good.

Flight #2528

Not making light of the topic, but a group of friends and I were discussing what we would do to survive if we were lost in the mountains. We all came up with some really great ideas, and I let them believe that their plans were fool proof, but we all know... I'd be the one to survive. After listening to their list of skills and ideas, I do believe I have most of it figured out...

I wake up late, running around the house throwing things together for my flight. I make it to the airport just in time. This is my first time flying, so I'm a little nervous. The flight is going great, my nerves have calmed down and I'm enjoying the experience. There's a guy sitting ahead of me with a Yankee cap on and one behind me banging on his laptop fussing about some bids. All of a sudden, we feel vibrations. The plane shifts and loses elevation.

I wake up. I'm cold. I can still hear the sounds of screams in my head. I look around and see something moving. It's a group of others that have gathered and are trying to sort through the bodies, looking for other survivors. There's only a few of us alive. We ravage the plane for food and blankets and try to figure out how we're going to get out of this.The first night was the worst. I couldn't sleep, so I just watched everyone else and made sure they were ok, while I was sneaking food. I go back and find a comfy spot to rest. When everyone wakes in the morning, we find that we lost a member.
It seems that Yankee suffocated during the night, due to someone sitting on a pillow on his head. Oops.The second day was spent mourning the death of our dear dear friend, while we chowed down on some Boston, I mean, Yankee butt.

The strange guy, Watch, spent the afternoon piddling around with the wreckage. None of us were sure of what he was doing, but during supper, he ran in screaming, "I've done it!". Everyone dropped their plate of ribs to run out and see what he was doing, but I.... I stayed behind and finished their food. When I went outside of our man made cave, I could hear them talking about how sleek it was. "That baby's gonna ride smooth", Bennie added.We decided to take it out for a test ride, men up front, of course. We were creeping down the mountain, taking our time. Watch was figuring out how to steer it, when all of a sudden, we started going faster and faster. I fell off the back and watched the men zooming towards a tree.

They crashed into it! Bodies flew everywhere. Poor Greg and Watch were so ripped to pieces that we couldn't tell which leg belonged to which body. We loaded the body parts onto the sled and walked back to our cave to rethink this whole plan.I worked and worked on the sled, making sure that we had some type of protection for our next attempt. Neo and Bennie were in the kitchen, slaving over our make-shift stove. I was covered in blood and completely exhausted when I realized that I needed more parts. I decided to take a little break and eat. It was the best meal yet. Neo was getting very weak from not eating and I knew we had to get him out of there quickly.

I woke up late that night and went to check on the guys, but Neo didn't make it. He died peacefully in his sleep. So, I knew I had to finish the sled fast. I found a butter knife and scraped Neo's frozen body from the floor and carried him outside. I tore and shredded Neo's poor body to pieces, making him fit perfectly. I had used their bodies as bumpers for the sled. Yankee was strapped on the front. I figured since he was the first to go, that he also should be the first to go down the mountain. Watch and Greg were tied onto the bottom of the sled, since they died together. Neo was ripped and used as side rails. Then I said a prayer to honor the fallen.

I woke Bennie bright and early for our trip down the mountain. He was really out of it, talking nonsense. We loaded what was left of the food onto the sled and started drifting slowly down. Taking our time so that what happened before didn't happen again. We had almost made it to the bottom, when out of no where, a cliff appeared. We steered as hard as we could to miss it, but we just couldn't. We flew through the air, knowing that we were about to die. I reached out and grabbed Bennie's hand and pulled him under me just before we hit the ground. I hated to do it, but I had to use him as a cushion.I walked for hours when I finally came upon a house. We called for help.

I've been on every television show there is and am now the richest woman on earth. Sorry Oprah. I opened a bar & grill called The Cold Shoulder. I have a line of specialty items like Yankee Butt Rub, Watch's Favorite Finger Tossed Salad, There's A Panther In My Pants Shaving Cream, BBQ Bennie Back Ribs, and Greg Salad Sandwiches.Life is good, and I do not regret this experience. It has taught me many things and I'm thankful for the meat that the men provided for me. God Bless and good night!

December 31 1994...

As many of you know, I was a BIG club person. I loved going to clubs to hear bands play live. Well, back in 1989, Fall, I was in school at SFA and we would go to a club called The Goodtimes Garage. One night, some friends told me to go with them to see a band called The Hunger. They were two brothers pictured here: Thomas and Jeff that formed the nucleus of the band back then.

I said sure as i was up for most anything back then. I went and they were AWSOME!!! They played for a good long time and did some original stuff as well as cover tunes. I ended up meeting them as some of the people that i went with knew them from Dickenson Texas where they went to school with them.

I became friend with them and would go see them anytime that they came to Southeast Texas and the surrounding area like Houston, Austin, Beaumont and Southwest Louisiana in a few clubs there. Well I was living in Arizona and I came in for Christmas and went to see the band and went backstage and had a few drinks with them. I got real drunk and took a dive off the speaker stack. I used to love to Slam-Dance and Stage-Dive. I hit the floor and knew I was hurt, not how seriously I really was at that time, I then went back stage and asked for another drink...

I broke my collar bone and was damm lucky that i did not break my neck. I went to the emergence room at about 2am smelling of alcohol and really hurting as my right shoulder was now close to my neck. Here is a pic of my with a brace on about 2 days after the accident.

Well, after that, i learned that The Hunger were having a show in Galveston Texas on December 31 at a club called the Purple Onion, so i got tickets and i went to it. I went backstage and had a few drinks, but not many and watched the show. During the show, Thomas Wilson, the lead singer, asked me to come up on stage and sing with him. Here are the pic on my 15 minuets of fame...

Colds...

When we were starting to leave Texas on Saturday the 30, I started to get a "cold". Everyone in Texas, at least the ones we wanted to see were sick or had a cold. IT seems that it never fails, One of us ends up sick and going to the emergency room! Over the last 3 years, Sondra and Chelsea have had to go for something. Well, when we got there, my mother was sick and my grandmother had a cold.

As i said, i started to feel sick. IT is not the "flu" but it is kicking my ass!! I am coughing my head off at night and i feel good and then feel bad, but the cough has go to GO! I am sooo tired of this. IT is like luggage that you never get rid of.

I have taken everything under the sun, NyQuil, Advil, other stuff and it does not work. I guess that i will just have to ware it out. The other night, I woke up at 4am coughing my head off and it woke my wife up. Bless her soul, she place a cough drop in my mouth and I went back to sleep...

Cough, Cough...
Almost time for bed...
